Energizer, I think there some post here somewhere about listing the WAW script. It's funny how many WAS say the same things. I told my XW one time that she was textbook....she got really pissed! I couldn't help but laugh but I sure got mine.
You know we should totally put together a WAS dictionary/ encylopedia. I know it's serious business, but a little humor in this situation can go a long way.
Wantobebetter: I think you definately got the right idea. Drop the rope, detach. Sometimes the reaction is immediately noticable. WAW's flip when they see things not going according the plans they hashed out long before. And you doing the right things and 'enjoying the new you' are not a part of these plans. Whn I 180'd, my XW lost it. She began trying to hurt me, but it just rolled off and I continued in my happy way. It hurt, but all she saw was a great happy go lucky, responsibile guy. Her behavior got worse, but it also seem to speed up the process and she hit bottom at a faster pace....which was a good thing.
